[Verse] Sun sank low behind the cotton rows, My hands still bleed from the day’s hard toll. Dust clings tight like a worn-out coat, But the levee's call is the peace I know. [Pre-Chorus] And the river hums its silver tune, Underneath the lazy, rising moon. [Chorus] Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Leave my troubles where the water’s steady. Got the night to soothe these weary bones, The blues roll deep but I'm not alone. Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Findin’ strength where the wind is heavy. Every step’s a fight, but I’m still standin’, With the river’s song and my own two hands. [Verse] Daylight burns, and the world demands, But the night’s embrace gives a second chance. Fingers aching, heart recalling, How the river’s song keeps me from falling. [Pre-Chorus] And the river hums its silver tune, Underneath the lazy, rising moon. [Chorus] Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Leave my troubles where the water’s steady. Got the night to soothe these weary bones, The blues roll deep but I'm not alone. Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Findin’ strength where the wind is heavy. Every step’s a fight, but I’m still standin’, With the river’s song and my own two hands. [Bridge] Hard days break, but the night won’t lie, By the river’s edge, I breathe, I’m alive. Lay my burdens down and watch ‘em drift, In the moon’s soft glow, I find my gift. [Chorus] Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Leave my troubles where the water’s steady. Got the night to soothe these weary bones, The blues roll deep but I'm not alone. Walkin’ slow on the moonlit levee, Findin’ strength where the wind is heavy. Every step’s a fight, but I’m still standin’, With the river’s song and my own two hands. [Outro] Yeah, the river’s song and my own two hands.
